Yep - same thing happened to my trinidad congos - 2 or 3 of them split. the good news is that the split skins didn't make a difference in the hot sauce I made out of them last night! Tay-stee!

Eating hot chiles is a great excuse to empty a can of Reddi-Wip! That's what I use.

SL - 105 degrees? I dried some cayennes last weekend at 135 and it probably took 20 hours. I'll try lowering the temp next time, but how much longer do you think it would take at that low a temp? UZ - I picked up a Nesco dehydrator at bed bath and beyond. it's pretty decent, always gets good...

I'm going to add a +1 for Biker Billy. Great taste and heat! I actually found seed at a Lowe's 2 years ago but they didn't have it this past season. I'll add another +1 for the jaloro. I grew two this year and although I had fungus issues with those two especially, they were very productive...

Bigslimmm - I'm not a buckeyes fan, so you're not hurting my feelings! rmardis - yup, I started seeds indoors in mid-March with the help of grow lights. next year I'm going to start even earlier!

Hi all - - - - I've been lurking a few years and have learned a TON from you all! I live in the Cleveland, OH area and grow mainly tomatoes and chiles (serious salsa fan, and I make my own, always searching for the perfect recipe). My wife and I have a plot in our city's community garden where...
